I received my PhD from Stanford University in 2012 and was the director of the Silicon Valley AI Lab at Baidu Research until September 2017, then an Operating Partner at Khosla Ventures until 2018. During my graduate career, I co-developed an autonomous aerobatic helicopter, worked on perception systems for household robots, and early large-scale deep learning methods. I developed deep learning software for high-performance computing systems with a team at Stanford, used for unsupervised learning, object detection and self-driving cars.
